Guys i noticed that my nursing site dont have pagerank if you dont include "www." like http://startanursingagency.com but if you inlude it http://www.startanursingagency.com it has a pr5 what's with this "www" and i notice also in some newly updated PR sites that had the same problem..
Hi clyde66. For earch engines, http://www.domain.com and http://domain.com are two different websites with the same content. This means that they both will be penalized for duplicate content and will rank lower. Read more here http://ekstreme.com/webmaster/301-redirection.php You can solve this problem by HTTP 301 redirection header. Here at below link you can get code for redirecting http://domain.com to http://www.domain.com or visa versa http://ekstreme.com/phplabs/301-redirection-code.php
all you inbound links are probably point to www.yoursite.com, no big deal most webmasters have links point to www. I wouldn't worry about it.
You had to submit it again to google without the WWW qnd wait for you PR to rais .. it's not a big deal you can ignore it ...
Don't resubmit to google just use htaccess to redirect one to the other. RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site.co.uk RewriteRule (.*) http://www.site.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L] Code (markup):
I wouldn't even bother with it but if you insist, just go to the root directory on your site and creat a file called .htaccess and add any info you want. But don't add something if you don't know what you are doing.
.htaccess is one file by which you can redirect your domain.com to www.domain.com by just 2 line of coding. You can also do other work like url rewriting, password protect your some of the files etc using .htaccess. .htaccess file works fine with linux or unix server. But if you are using windows server then you need Apache as your web server for using .htaccess file. .htaccess is a one simple text file in your root directory. In linux server, it is by default there. In windows server you can create it. But you should have good knowledge about it. Any error in your .htaccess file will bring your whole site down.
